Explore documented Guadalupe homicide cases by victim, year and reported location, with dated investigation updates and links to the original reporting.
The initial selection documents John Lucas on Calle Bella Vista and Amalio Castillo-Villareal near Avenida del Yaqui and Calle Guadalupe. Both records include dated arrest reporting, rather than treating an arrest as a conviction.
The current selection contains 2 victim records with displayed dates spanning 2025. It is not a complete historical census. Each card preserves the victim’s name, reported location and supporting source so you can follow the underlying evidence.
Search by name, street or year below. A homicide finding, a murder charge and a conviction are different stages; consult the source and its date before describing a case as solved.

These records include homicide investigations, murder charges, convictions and reported murder-suicides. Each case gives the date of the status supported by its sources. An older arrest report does not establish the current court outcome.
Charges are allegations, not convictions. Fatal collisions are included only where the reviewed reporting establishes a murder charge or conviction. Counts refer to victims, so a double homicide has two records; perpetrator suicides are excluded.
Records use named victims, supported dates and locations, and a documented homicide basis. The linked local reports describe investigations by the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office. An arrest or charge is an allegation, not a conviction.
No. These 2 documented victim records are an initial selection, not a complete historical list or official annual total.
No map pins have been assigned yet. Each record gives the location described in the source, but precise scene coordinates have not been verified.
Homicide means one person caused another person’s death. Murder is a criminal legal classification. Case cards preserve distinctions such as homicide investigation, murder charge, conviction, unsolved case and murder-suicide rather than treating them as interchangeable.
The case cards link to Arizona’s Family and FOX 10 Phoenix reporting. Each status is dated to the supporting report.
